A LETTER FROM

Susan Varsames, M.A. Ed., CAS, RM

Founder of Holistic Learning Center, LLC

As the founder of the center, I am pleased to share our information as you pursue healthy alternatives to support your child’s development.

 

Our mission is to support families with their quest for knowledge as it relates to the health, language, motor development, cognition, and social skills necessary for their children to reach maximum potential.  We offer direct services to children and young adults as well parent training, school district training, and ongoing staff development, and individualized treatments.

 

Our organization  offers expertise in the field of language, learning, behavior, and motor delays/disorders. Children diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder, Pervasive Developmental Disorder, Autism, Sensory Processing Disorder, Auditory Processing Disorder, Language Delay, Learning Disabilities, and Global Developmental Delay are offered a variety of services to support their growth and development. However, we see children beyond any labels that describe them. We recognize a diagnosis, but it does not limit us to the unending possibilities of growth and potential.

​

Please contact us for further information at the phone number or e-mail on our contact page.
